Any map-based layer that is meaningful to you can be uploaded and displayed in FarmQA. Layers are first uploaded in the FarmQA web app as KML/KMZ, GeoTiff, or Shapefiles, and are then visible from the FarmQA web app or mobile app. See further details below.
NOTE: If you haven't added map layers see this article

After following these instructions to add map layers they can be viewed on the mobile app by following the steps below.
- Log in to your FarmQA account from the mobile app.
- Click on Settings in the bottom right-hand corner, then Layer sync preferences (pictured below).
- Select the map layer types you want to download to your mobile application (ex: Soils Data).
- Click the back arrow button at the upper left-hand side of the screen to automatically sync these data layers to your FarmQA mobile app.
- NOTE: it is best to do this with a stable data connection or while on WiFi.
- THIS MAY TAKE AWHILE TO SYNC as we are pulling data down to your phone.
- After the layers are Synced, you can view them from the Field Details view. Do this by locating a field from the map or list view and clicking on it.
- Next, pull up on the drawer handle at the bottom of the screen and toggle on the layer you want to view (see below)
- NOTE: you can only view one layer at a time.
- NOTE: If you are unable to swipe up on the details, that could mean that 1) you do not have layers for the field, 2) you are in the wrong growing season, or 3) the sync has not completed.
